Abstract:
This data set contains time series measurements of seawater pressure from anchored or bottom-mounted sensors. Measurements of variations at depth of seawater pressure provide information on tidal and storm flows, ocean circulation and other phenomena that cause changes in sea surface elevation or slope and that can be detected from their pressure signature. Position, bottom depth and gauge depth are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of total pressure at specified date and time. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at time intervals of 10 - 15 minutes. Seawater temperature may also be reported. Comments may be reported in a text record. NOAAServer Codes: [OL 75 20 -70 -180] ; nodateline obtain
